Mao Zedong (December 26th, 1893 — September 9th, 1976) was a Chinese Marxist–Leninist revolutionary who led the Chinese people to their proletarian revolution and served as the supreme leader of the People's Republic of China from 1949 to 1976. Under Mao's leadership, China's life expectancy increased from 35 to 65 years and industrial production increased by an average of 11% annually.[1] Per capita food production increased by 60% and total food production increased by over 169%.[2]
